Oatmeal Orange Cookies

      2 cups butter, softened
      3/4 cup granulated sugar
      3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
      2 eggs
        1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
          1 orange, zest and juiced
            1 tbsp. orange juice
      2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
      2 cups old fashioned oats
      1/2 tsp. baking soda
      1 tsp. cinnamon

      Preheat oven to 350 F.
      Place the butter in a medium mixing bowl. Cream the butter using an electric mixer. Slowly add the sugars and continue to mix for 2-3 minutes.
      Add the eggs, and mix just to combine.
      Sift the dry ingredients together in a separate mixing bowl. Add to the wet ingredients, along with the juice and zest. Drop the dough one tablespoon at a time onto two cookie sheets lined with   parchment paper. Bake 10 minutes or until the bottom of the cookies are just browned. Cool on a wire rack.
